Minister of Environment and Climate Change Steven Guilbeault arrives to speak to media in Los Angeles, Calif., on Thursday, June 9, 2022. Five days after Steven Guilbeault was appointed Canada's environment minister in October 2021, he headed to Scotland for the annual United Nations climate talks being held in Glasgow.
"I think that the prime minister wanted to have an activist in this position because he believes that is what is needed to do what we told Canadians we would do during the last election on climate, on nature, on environmental issues, which is to do more and to do it faster," he said in an interview with The Canadian Press."He kind of understands what the scale of the challenge is," said Timothy Gray, executive director at Environmental Defence Canada.
He is quick to agree the heavy lifting isn't done. Most of his files are works in progress, with final regulations still to be developed or implemented. "The most difficult decision I had to make, by far, was Bay du Nord. There's no doubt about that," Guilbeault said."That particular day was extremely difficult."
In May, an alliance of environment groups launched a lawsuit to overturn the approval. Among the groups involved is Equiterre, the very same organization Guilbeault helped found in 1993. Steven Guilbeault, minister of the environment and climate change, speaks at the COP27 UN Climate Summit, Tuesday, Nov. 15, 2022, in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt.
"The amount of regulations, and which regulations we are seeing at this point, it really is a tribute to how active and convincing the minister has been and it needs to be highlighted," she said.
